The Ancient One wore an expression caught between laughter and exasperation. "You know, even creator gods get bored over the endless ages. To pass those tedious years, they often find ways to amuse themselves..."
"Some gods enjoy wandering between universes and worlds. Some like having more living beings worship them, while others long to experience emotions like ordinary mortals..."
"And Death clearly chose the third way to pass the time. She tried to experience human emotions, and actually developed feelings for a human..."
Toby couldn't help pressing a hand to his forehead. He no longer had the energy to even complain.
Death, who toyed with Thanos's feelings in the comics, had actually fallen for a human.
How the fuck did that make sense?
And even if someone could make Death fall in love, shouldn't it have been Deadpool, whom she admired in the comics?
But Deadpool was right behind him, serving as his lackey. If Death had fallen for Deadpool, shouldn't she have been on his side?
Toby sighed silently and asked outright, "So who did Death fall in love with? Don't tell me it was Doctor Doom himself..."
The Ancient One shook her head slightly. "No, it wasn't him. It was a witch, actually. An evil witch who grew stronger by devouring other witches' power. Her name is Agatha Harkness."
Toby froze at that, and a television series immediately flashed through his mind.
It was the witch Agatha's solo series.
In that show, Death did seem to have had a romance with Agatha.
At that thought, Toby's expression darkened further. He couldn't help swearing under his breath. "Fuck! More bullshit characterization Marvel came up with during its bullshit political correctness era!"
And clearly, this Multiverse built on the Marvel Cinematic Universe had also carried over that damned bullshit "lesbian"
